Background: deviations observed during operations initiated our investigation on variability inthe course of nervus axilaris.Group: 100 braxial plexuses were examined in 50 adult cadavers in order to determine neuralvariability of n. axilaris.Results: a deviation in the course of n. axilaris was observed in one case (2 %).Conclusion: the study made it possible to determine and describe an exceptional, so farunreported anatomical deviation. The origin of n. axilaris is in a continued posterior branch ofthe upper trunk.
Key words: nervus axilaris.
